  Case: Homework as Optional
Mrs. White tells her 7th grade students that homework is optional. How could she ensure that her students will do their homework? What would she do in order to teach her students that homework is optional but it is important?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
A way to have students to complete optional homework is to communicate with parents. In emailing parents about the importance of completing the homework, the parents can also explain and have their child complete the homework. Parents are a great way to help support you and help teach how important homework if it is labeled optional or required.
